NEW YORK (AP) — Leslie Jones went to one of the most public of stages — the one at the Emmy Awards — to joke about her privacy woes on social media.

During a routine Sunday saluting Ernst & Young accountants, the “Saturday Night Live” actress addressed three of the firm’s representatives.

“Since you good at keeping things safe, I got a job for you — my Twitter account,” she said. “Put that in the vault, please.”
